Stoker’s Undying Legacy: Gavin Collinson, Amanda Mason, and Leticia Lentini

Bram Stoker’s legacy on the world is immense, from literature to TV and film. Join author and cultural historian, Gavin Collinson, who worked on the BBC’s 1977 version of Dracula, and more recently has written extensively for the BBC, BFI, and Hammer Films on gothic horror. A crime writer, his latest is his Moriarty series of books. Gavin has also written for BBC’s Doctor Who.

Local lass and Whitby author Amanda Mason was born within the sound of the bells of St Mary's Church, an inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula. This Gothic background has nourished a fervent imagination and curious mind creating wonderfully dark and mysterious novels set in Whitby.

They’re joined by Leticia Lentini, founder of the Whitby publishers, The Crow Emporium, who recently brought new blood to the classic tale with a bespoke illustrated version of Dracula.
